We will work on Probability Concepts.

This adds several more tools for calculating more complex probability probabilities than you have so far. It leads on from Level 2 Probability, overlapping quite a bit but asking more complex problems and asks you to relate your answers much more to the real life context.
You should have at least a scientific calculator. You could do this course if you haven't done Level 2 maths but you really must have done Level 1 Algebra, Graphs and Chance and Data and be prepared for a lot of extra homework to be able to jump a level.

The exam is external and worth 4 credits.

Achievement
You need to apply probability concepts in solving problems.
This could involve:

Problems are situations that provide opportunities to apply knowledge or understanding of statistical concepts and methods. Situations will be set in real-life statistical contexts.
You need to be familiar with methods related to:
true probability versus model estimates versus experimental estimates (probabilities to be calculated from formulae, a probability distribution table or graph, tables of counts or proportions, simulation results)

Achievement with Merit
